Psycho

Recently we watched Alfred Hitchcocks Psycho. The basic plot of the part of the story that weve seen so far is that a woman, Marion Crane, has stolen her boss' money. She stays in a hotel over night, while on the run. She meets the owner of the hotel, Norman Bates, a lonely man who runs the hotel and is living with his mother. His only real passion is stuffing birds. Whilst showering, Marion is repeatedly stabbed and killed, by someone who looks like Norman's mother.


Names are very cleverly used in this film. Bates means that he is luring people in, and Crane is a very magestic bird. This may mean that Bates is drawing Marion in, so that he can stuff her like his other birds.
